Republican Scott Baugh and state Sen. Dave Min (D-Irvine) are vying for the seat representing the 47th Congressional District, which includes Irvine , Newport Beach , Costa Mesa , Laguna Beach and Huntington Beach .

Republicans have seized on crime as a potential way to appeal to voters and flip the highly sought seat.

The conservative Congressional Leadership Fund released a television ad criticizing Min 's yes vote on the Safer Streets for All Act .

Supporters say the law was written to prevent police from profiling loiterers.

A recent poll showed Min 's most frequent open-ended mention was "DUI" or "Drunk driving".
